Glue the Christmas tree and toy balls on the second mitten.
So quickly we made mittens.
Place the snowman and mittens on a sunny windowsill. In the air, crafts are dried for about 5-7 days. Although the mittens will of course dry out in a couple of days, since they are not as bulky as a snowman.
Crafts are dry. Paint them with paints, cover with glossy varnishes.
We glue the snowman in a frame, decorate with glitter. Spread a layer of PVA glue under the snowman's legs, put "snow". Tighten it lightly. Once the glue is dry, the "snow" will adhere firmly. Such "snow" can be stored for a couple of days in a plastic bag.
The snowman is ready.
Pass the tape through the mittens. Decorate with glitter
Gifts for the New Year are ready.

Salted sculpting dough is a safe material for kids' crafts. You can make cool Christmas tree toys of any shape from it. Let's take a look at a few master classes that the designers have prepared.
Salty dough recipe
For dough crafts, take:
- 1 cup salt
- 1 cup flour;
- water;
- colored gouache.
This is the easiest salt dough recipe. To improve it, add 5 tablespoons of sunflower oil.
IDEA! The paint can be replaced with juice (cherry or beetroot). If a child eats a piece of dough while sculpting, he will definitely not be poisoned. The dough can be dyed at the end.
How to make dough at home? Step by step:
- Put all the ingredients in a deep plate. First dry, then only water and oil.
- Mix everything to make the dough like dumplings. It doesn't have to be oak.
- To make the mass faster, turn on the mixer.

IDEA! If the toys are small or you need to make small parts, make the dough separately with PVA or starch. There may be some glue left after wallpapering. Use it instead of PVA.

How to make crafts from salt dough with your own hands
Salty dough, the recipe of which will be easy even for children, is a very flexible material, but it is absolutely safe in composition. Add food colors or even natural ones (juices of fruits or vegetables) to it. Even if you leave the child alone for modeling, nothing will happen to him.
![](https://i1.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-5.jpg)
Sculpting tools:
- rolling pin;
- working flat surface;
- ball pen;
- paint brush;
- a cup;
- threads;
- medium-sized needle;
- silicone baking dishes;
- any stencils for patterns;
- paint (acrylic or gouache);
To prevent the gouache from cracking, add glue to it.

![](https://i2.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-9.jpg)
We cover the figurine with paint and varnish
![](https://i1.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-10.jpg)
The dye is added not only at the stage of kneading the dough, but also during sculpting. Just divide the dough into several parts (1 part \u003d 1 color), make a depression in the center and add the dye. When sculpting, it will be distributed evenly over the entire piece.
![](https://i1.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-11.jpg)
With an ordinary brush, you need to paint the grooves from the paw
When the figurine is ready, cover it with varnish, so the paint will definitely not roll and brighten. The aerosol form will facilitate the coating process.
![](https://i2.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-12.jpg)
If the varnish is liquid, cover the toy in several layers. Thick cover in one layer. It can also be matte.
IMPORTANT! If you dry the toy properly, you can do without varnish. It is needed if you are not quite sure that you did everything correctly.
![](https://i1.wp.com/etotdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/testo-lapka-13.jpg)
What could go wrong?
- Cracks or bubbles appear after drying. This means you did not dry the figurine correctly. Most likely high temperature with the oven door closed. Try sanding these areas with sandpaper.
- Cracks can also appear after painting. Let the craft dry completely and only then paint. Dry the figure in natural conditions, sand the cracks with sandpaper and paint again.
- If any part of the figure breaks off, glue it with PVA.
- Store figurines in a dry place at normal room temperature. They can be folded into any cardboard box, then nothing will happen to them for sure by the next holiday.

Modeling is one of the most rewarding activities for babies. With its help, not only fine motor skills of the hands develops, but also perseverance, imaginative thinking and coordination of movements are developed.
One of the best materials for sculpting with your child is salt dough. It is completely safe, does not contain harmful additives and is easy to use. Crafts made from salt dough with your own hands will become wonderful souvenirs for your relatives and friends.
Universal recipes
You can find a great variety of salt dough recipes. Each master adds his own additives to them, selecting the desired consistency. The main products for kneading dough are salt, flour and water.
Depending on the purpose, its density may be different:
- dense dough - for large parts and creating massive panels;
- universal dough of medium consistency - it is convenient to make small pictures and figures from it;
- soft dough - delicate and pliable, suitable for small items, exquisite flowers and figurines.
Some needlewomen measure ingredients in grams, others prefer to use proportions in parts.
Thick dough
For work you will need:
- wheat flour - 1 part;
- edible salt - 1 part;
- water - 0.7 parts.
That is, to knead this type of dough, you need to take one identical measure (glass, cup, tablespoon) of salt and flour and 0.7 of the same measure of water.
Combine dry ingredients in a deep bowl and add cold water little by little. The dough should be smooth and very firm. Grains of salt will remain in it - this is normal, do not worry. Depending on the moisture content and quality of flour and salt, a little more or less water may be needed. Therefore, you cannot pour it into the dough all at once.
Medium dough (universal)
For work you will need:
- wheat flour - 1 part;
- water - 1 part;
- edible salt - ½ part;
- finely ground salt (extra) - ½ part.
By replacing half of the coarse salt with fine salt, this type of dough turns out to be more plastic and pliable. It is convenient to sculpt even a child from such an obedient mass. But for the smallest details and realistic crafts, such a dough is also not suitable.
Soft dough
For work you will need:
- wheat flour - 1 part;
- hot water - 1/4 part;
- finely ground salt (extra) - 1 part;
- pVA glue - ¾ part.
Combine salt and flour, then add thick PVA glue and stir. Pouring in hot water little by little, knead a soft dough. It must be wrapped in plastic wrap, allowed to rest and cool.
This dough is ideal for tricky work. It perfectly holds its shape, preserving the prints and texture created on it. Its quality directly depends on the quality of the selected glue.
Figurines sculpted from salt dough with glue differ special durability. They will delight their owner for more than one year.
- If you plan to dye finished products, it is better to use wheat flour, although rye flour can also be used for salty dough.
- Do not take iodized salt - the finished figurines may crack when dried.
- The dough can be dyed even during kneading. For this, food colors or watercolors are used.
- The finished dough must be wrapped in plastic wrap or plastic bag to prevent it from drying out.
- Unsuccessful dough can be reanimated. Add a little more flour to the liquid one and knead it again, the too tight dough is moistened with water and kneaded, achieving the desired consistency.
- Do not add grease or hand cream to the dough you intend to dye from - the paint will not lay evenly.
- The finished dough should be stored in the refrigerator for no more than 2 days. It loses its qualities and it will be inconvenient to work with it.
- It is best to sculpt bulky products on wire or cardboard frames so that they do not fall apart.
- Crafts can be dried naturally by leaving them for a couple of days, baked in a warm oven, or left next to a battery. It is categorically not recommended to put figures on the battery itself in order to avoid their cracking.
- It is best to paint crafts with acrylic paint or gouache. Do not use watercolors: there is a risk of soaking and ruining the product.
- The junction of the parts must be moistened with water using a brush. So they will connect firmly and quickly.
- The finished souvenir can be coated with colorless nail polish or acrylic varnish. This will protect it from moisture and the paint from fading.
Armed with your new knowledge, try putting it into practice.
